Director F.W. Murnau wisely
Director F.W. Murnau wisely does not hold back in his portrayal of a man who cannot access his family and friends' lives, despite the fact that he is often in the background. The film is a surprisingly good examination of the death penalty in prison and of the ways in which the system has been utilized. It also provides a look at the use of the death penalty in Australia and other countries. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to delve into
Director F.W. Murnau wisely lets the viewers take a peek at a character that's never actually portrayed. The characters are all very well developed and original, and the performances are not too bad. Unfortunately, this is a very weak film. The story is a little too predictable and a little rushed, but the overall feel of the film is much better than this. It's not as if this was the last time we saw a lonely, crippled person.
